### Rationale for this change In support of adding an [`arrow.array.ListArray`](#37815) MATLAB class, this pull request adds a new `arrow.type.ListType` MATLAB class. ### What changes are included in this PR? 1. New `arrow.list(<type>)` MATLAB construction function. 2. New `arrow.list.ListType` MATLAB class. `ListType` has a property named `Type` which indicates the inner type of the `List`. `Type` can be set to any subclass `arrow.type.Type` (including `arrow.type.ListType`, to support nested lists). 3. New `arrow.type.ID.List` type ID enumeration value. 4. New `arrow.type.traits.ListTraits` type traits class. Some of the properties, such as `ArrayConstructor` and `ArrayProxyClassName`, are set to `missing` because they are dependent on adding [`arrow.array.ListArray`](#37815) first. **Example** ```matlab % Create a simple List<String> type. >> stringListType = arrow.list(arrow.string()) stringListType = ListType with properties: ID: List Type: [1x1 arrow.type.StringType] % Create a nested List<List<Boolean>> type. >> nestedListType = arrow.list(arrow.list(arrow.boolean())) nestedListType = ListType with properties: ID: List Type: [1x1 arrow.type.ListType] % Extract the first-level, inner type, which is List<Boolean>. >> innerType = nestedListType.Type innerType = ListType with properties: ID: List Type: [1x1 arrow.type.BooleanType] % Extract the second-level, nested inner type, which is Boolean. >> innerType.Type ans = BooleanType with properties: ID: Boolean ``` ### Are these changes tested? Yes. 1. Added `tListType.m`. 2. Added `tListTraits.m`. 3. Updated `tField.m` to include `arrow.list`. 4. Updated `tID.m` to include `arrow.type.ID.List`. 6. Updated `tTypeDisplay.m` to include `arrow.type.ListType`. 7. Updated `ttraits.m` to include `arrow.type.traits.ListTraits`. ### Are there any user-facing changes? Yes. Client MATLAB code can now creates instances of `arrow.type.ListType` by using the `arrow.list(<type>)` construction function. ### Future Directions 1. #37815 * Closes: #37812 Authored-by: Kevin Gurney <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: Kevin Gurney <[email protected]>

### Rationale for this change
Now that many of the commonly-used "primitive" array types have been added to the MATLAB interface, we can implement an `arrow.array.ListArray` class.
This pull request adds a new `arrow.array.ListArray` class which can be converted to a MATLAB `cell` array by calling the static `toMATLAB` method.
### What changes are included in this PR?
1. Added a new `arrow.array.ListArray` MATLAB class.
*Methods*
`cellArray = arrow.array.ListArray.toMATLAB()`
`listArray = arrow.array.ListArray.fromArrays(offsets, values)`
*Properties*
`Offsets` - `Int32Array` list offsets (uses zero-based indexing)
`Values` - Array of values in the list (supports nesting)
2. Added a new `arrow.type.traits.ListTraits` MATLAB class.
**Example**
```matlab
>> offsets = arrow.array(int32([0, 2, 3, 7]))
offsets =
[
0,
2,
3,
7
]
>> values = arrow.array(["A", "B", "C", "D", "E", "F", "G"])
values =
[
"A",
"B",
"C",
"D",
"E",
"F",
"G"
]
>> arrowArray = arrow.array.ListArray.fromArrays(offsets, values)
arrowArray =
[
[
"A",
"B"
],
[
"C"
],
[
"D",
"E",
"F",
"G"
]
]
>> matlabArray = arrowArray.toMATLAB()
matlabArray =
3x1 cell array
{2x1 string}
{["C" ]}
{4x1 string}
>> matlabArray{:}
ans =
2x1 string array
"A"
"B"
ans =
"C"
ans =
4x1 string array
"D"
"E"
"F"
"G"
```
### Are these changes tested?
Yes.
1. Added a new `tListArray.m` test class.
2. Added a new `tListTraits.m` test class.
3. Updated `arrow.internal.test.tabular.createAllSupportedArrayTypes` to include `ListArray`.
### Are there any user-facing changes?
Yes.
1. Users can now create an `arrow.array.ListArray` from an `offsets` and `values` array by calling the static `arrow.array.ListArray.fromArrays(offsets, values)` method. `ListArray`s can be converted into MATLAB `cell` arrays by calling the static `arrow.array.ListArray.toMATLAB` method.
### Notes
1. We chose to use the "missing-class" `missing` value as the `NullSubstitutionValue` for the time being for `ListArray`. However, we eventually want to add `arrow.array.NullArray`, and will most likely want to use the "missing-class" `missing` value to represent `NullArray` values in MATLAB. So, this could cause some ambiguity in the future. We have been thinking about whether we should consider introducing some sort of special "sentinel value" to represent null values when converting to MATLAB `cell` arrays. Perhaps, something like `arrow.Null`, or something to that effect, in order to avoid this ambiguity. If we think it makes sense to do that, we may want to retroactively change the `NullSubstitutionValue` to be `arrow.Null` and break compatibility. Since we are still in pre-`0.1`, we don't think the impact of such a behavior change would be very large.
2. Implementing `ListArray` is fairly involved. So, in the spirit of incremental delivery, we chose not to include an implementation of `arrow.array.ListArray.fromMATLAB` in this initial pull request. We plan on following up with some more changes to `arrow.array.ListArray`. See #38353, #38354, and #38361.
3. Thank you @ sgilmore10 for your help with this pull request!
### Future Directions
1. #38353
2. #38354
3. #38361
4. Consider adding a null sentinel value like `arrow.Null` for conversion to MATLAB `cell` arrays.
* Closes: #37815
